About
Melinda, an only child, grew up with books and art supplies gifted by her late mother to keep her occupied. Her creative environment was shaped by her maternal family, where painting, drawing, music, sewing, and arts & crafts were common pursuits. However, she wasn’t fully aware of its influence at the time. Despite always being drawn to art and words, she chose safer careers for over two decades. It was during a challenging period in her life—dealing with family, health, and work struggles—that she found solace in writing, drawing, and painting. Today, she continues to find rest and connection through her art, navigating life’s inevitable ups and downs.
“Art for me starts with life itself, not just on the paper. My earlier works from 2021 were intricate line drawings, but as I loosened up as an artist, I was drawn to looser lines and brushstrokes, eventually leading me into abstract painting in loose, intuitive style to bold, graphical style. I paint mostly with acrylic gouache, it's my current favourite! My abstract work began as a way to liberate my creative expression. Today, I’m still interested in how crafting a piece makes me feel. Through my art, I invite you to connect with my stories and reflect on your own. May they bring beauty, inspiration, and a sense of peace to you.” - Melinda Yeoh
